Gekido

Gekido, released as Gekido: Urban Fighters in North America and PAL regions, is a PlayStation beat ’em up created by the Italian studio NAPS Team. This record represents the PlayStation game converted to PS3, not a native modern PS3 release. The story follows Rumor and his companions as they try to rescue Angela from a criminal gang and confront a supernatural threat.

The game uses fast-paced side-scrolling combat with combos, weapons, enemies, bosses, and a Rage Meter that enables stronger attacks. Players move through urban stages, fight groups of opponents, pick up objects, and progress through a colorful 3D presentation. The PlayStation release includes a story mode and supports cooperative action with another local player.

Gekido combines beat ’em up combat with a 3D side-scrolling path, multiple playable characters, and single-player or local cooperative play. Its stages emphasize close-range attacks, environmental hazards, and boss encounters rather than role-playing progression. Catalog status: PlayStation-to-PS3 conversion; developer: NAPS Team; publishers: Infogrames and Interplay Entertainment; local players: 1–2.
